Like there’s more than one character actor in the world. They should have stuck with Colin Ferrell, that’s someone I could see young dumbledore falling for. Not bleached out jack sparrow.

He reminds me of tom cruise i.e. Tom cruise in mission tom cruise starring Tom cruise stunts by tom cruise produced by Tom cruise. I can’t see any of these movies anymore without thinking that.  

Right? Beyond all the stuff with heard, im just sick of his face.

I honestly like RDj’s one-trick far more than his.

He was so bad in that Fantastic Beasts film that my friend actually shrieked with laughter. I can’t believe they went from Colin, who killed it, to him in the last few minutes.

Personal life aside, Johnny Depp’s acting has devolved into a camp parody of itself. What he seems to be nowadays is a Tallulah Bankhead impersonator. (Right down to the drunken slurring).

UGH!! What a tragic choice. I’ve been holding off to not distract from MeToo, but now I can say how disturbed I was by the video of him intimidating his live-in partner by smashing wine bottles and refusing to look at her or speak to her while she begs him to stop. I was a huge huge Depp fan. That all vanished when I…

I’m disappointed in Rowling’s response. Especially because I think Depp is a one-trick pony and I’m bored with his trick.

There is a type of fringe-but-mainstream-but fringe type of goth aesthetic that peaked in 1994 and then froze. It was the time when goth had evolved beyond the 80s electropunk goth and before it evolved towards glittergoth through connections with rave culture.

I about lost my mind when My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult came on screen. Good luck recapturing that.

And aside from what happened with Brandon Lee, there is no way to capture the feeling, era, music, and style from the 1994 movie. That movie is a product of it’s time as much as any movie I can even think of, a reboot using different music or set in a different time just does not work

The thing that bothers me about this argument, Tim, is that for artistic purposes (and I’m an educated painter), the idea of fair use is for transformative, or satirical, or commentative purposes. None of which the pulled earrings meet. They’re just a sad replica, swiped from upper management’s back catalogues. Those…

O’Bannon was an old school SF fan, and he claimed that the major inspiration for Alien was Philip Jose Farmer’s Strange Relations. Although van Vogt was convinced that it was a ripoff of his Voyage of the Space Beagle, and settled out of court with Fox for an undisclosed sum. (That’s probably why George Lucas stopped…

There was no independent artist. They were lying to save their asses. One of their own companies had already purchased this same style from her, and tried to reorder them at a much lower price, which she declined to do. The three companies are intertwined and all know what the other branches are carrying. But you are…

This is so awful because they lowballed her and then stole her idea, so they clearly knew where the earrings were coming from.

To be fair, Scott was talking about the aliens as biological weapons as early as 1979, and floated the possibility that the derelict was the interstellar equivalent of a B-17 bomber from an ancient war. Cameron seemed to think that the crew had come across the aliens by pure misadventure, sort of like what happened to…

Again, the whole reason the alien gets onboard the ship is because Weyland-Yutani directs the computer to take the Nostromo to the planetoid with the derelict on it. The movie might be about an alien killing humans on a spaceship, but the subtext is corporate greed and indifference to human life in the name of profit.…

People would see the superficial similarities.

The sad thing is that they could make Neuromancer and everyone would be saying it ripped off Matrix.
